About University of Chester

The University of Chester was founded in 1839. It is the first teacher-oriented institution of higher learning and one of the oldest comprehensive public universities in the United Kingdom. It offers matriculation, undergraduate and postgraduate training programmes as well as academic studies. The university has five campuses. These campuses are strategically located in the centres of Chester, Warrington and Shrewsbury. In the 2020 WhatUni Student Choice Award, the international student experience of the University of Chester was rated first in England and second in the United Kingdom.

 

The University of Chester offers a wide range of programmes, with 246 undergraduate programmes and 220 postgraduate programmes covering a total of 51 areas. The rich teaching system attracts nearly 14,000 students each year, 12% of whom are international. Medicine, Nursing, Geography and Nutrition are the most popular choices among the widely available programmes. These specialisms give top rankings in the North West and within England and are recognised by many businesses.

 

Ranking

National league tables tend to place the University of Chester in the UK mid-table —the Guardian ranked it joint 46th and the Complete guide around joint 56th — while global lists place it in the THE 1501+ band. Despite that overall position, Chester shines in specific subjects such as education and health, where teaching quality and regional impact are especially strong.

Location

Chester's main, compact campus sits in the historic city centre, complemented by Creative Campus, Queen's Park and regional centres in Warrington and Shrewsbury. That spread keeps students close to cultural life and employers: Chester is about 40 miles from Manchester and roughly 20–30 miles from Liverpool, Warrington lies between those cities, and Shrewsbury sits around 15 miles west of Telford.

Student fees

Fees depend on residency and programme: for 2025/26 home undergraduates the typical fee is £9,535 per year, while international undergraduates commonly pay about £14,450. Postgraduate taught fees usually range from roughly £8,505 to over £15,000 depending on subject, with medicine and professionally accredited programmes often attracting higher charges or placement-year adjustments.

Scholarship

Chester offers a blend of merit and need-based support: automatic International Scholarships for eligible overseas students, alumni and department bursaries, plus national schemes (Commonwealth, Chevening where eligible). Named awards such as the Snowdon Masters can provide substantial fee support — sometimes up to around £15,000 — but amounts, eligibility and deadlines vary by award and year.

Employability

Graduate Outcomes indicate that about 89.8% of graduates move into employment or further study, with roughly 73.1% in high-skill roles. The university's careers service links students with 500+ employers, arranges placements and employer fairs, and many courses include professional accreditation or work-based modules that ease the transition from study into local and national careers.
